Audio

A usb sound card was used for our instance of integration. This was done in place of the current Husky sound card, as that one appears to non-functional. The setup is as follows:

Plug in card. Confirm playback device connected with terminal command

$ aplay -l

Confirm recording device connected with terminal command

$ arecord -l

For playback of the device, using mplayer (a linux package), edit the alsa-base.conf file. This is located in: etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. Edit the line:

snd-usb-audio = 0
snd-hda-Intel = -2

This sets usb audio card to default device, as well as making the default soundcard a never default device.

To play an audio stream from an Icecast stream, in terminal:

$ mplayer http://<ip address>:port/<mount point>

Permission Issues

If permission issues arise when editing audio settings, adding yourself to Audio Group may fix the issue. A tutorial to do this is found here: http://www.maenad.net/geek/di8k-debian/node23.html
